hi

This is my final project from week 3 of Explore Florals with Victoria Johnson.

Drain your heart before anyone else gets the chance. Available on T-shirts on my Threadless shop: https://phenzy.threadless.com/

Linocut

I try to keep vulgarity out of my work, but sometimes it just fits. This is one of those times.

Charcoal on toned gray paper

Lots of time to doodle while stuck in the airport

Killing time on the plane by drawing a lot of puppies.

Summer is finally here and I am creating a sunny postcard to send to friends while on road trips.

This guy makes me smile. Watercolor with pencil.

Experimenting with my cats. Somehow this guy has one really big ear. I didn't even notice until I took his picture.

Graham's Up the Tree! ("and there's nowhere else he can go!") - my 4 year old ran around the house for weeks misquoting the story with his own interpretation of an Australian accent. Calling it out over, and over, and over again.

"At 6 o'clock the window squeaks and mum calls time" from Graham's Up the Tree. It must have been strange for mbpardy to see his his story interpreted through my illustrations... but page by page these characters came to life, with both of our contributions somehow adding up to something bigger.

This was my first drawing for the Graham's Up the Tree book. I used my most trusted pen: Metal Pilot Falcon, Soft Extra Fine.

Australian author mbpardy & I have a children's book coming out soon called "Graham's Up the Tree." This illustration from the book makes a good countdown to release.

Fishy stuff going on with Bradshaw lately. Summertime must be getting close.

Still working on updating my cat style. I liked how this guy's fur turned out. I find the sketching part the hardest, it seems so easy to mess up the cat at that part.
